ABOUT THIS ALBUM

Album Notes

The Many Sides Of Onnik has become a classic recording in Armenian communities throughout the world. Renowned Armenian folk singer Onnik Dinkjian presents a program of dance songs, some sung in the Dikranagerd dialect, as well as timeless Armenian love songs. It was recorded in a state-of-the-art studio with world class musicians (son Ara Dinkjian of Night Ark fame on oud, cumbus, guitars, & keyboards, Arto Tuncboyaciyan also of Night Ark on percussion, and Harold Hagopian on violin & kanun). Some of the songs on this CD were subsequently covered by other famous singers (Eleftheria Arvanitaki, Sezen Aksu, Haig Yazdian, etc.).
